Data collection is a vital part of our job as SLPs. It allows us to accurately track and modify therapy plans on a regular basis to ensure that our students are receiving the best intervention possible. Below are several examples of therapy logs for you to use or get inspiration from. Please feel free to use whatever therapy log you prefer.

Therapy logs are also crucial for documentation and proof of service. Data collecting and tracking serves as a way to ensure that you as the service provider have proof of your work.

Documentation can also be included in the Service Tracker "Comments"
